Hello Lucy!
This is very well written...I read it immediately. One tiny detail I  
would add, is the Tension Symbol combined with the Touch Contact Star.  
When Tension-Touch are written together, it means "to press against".  
In this case, the fingertips are "pressing against each other" while  
the wrist movement occurs...

See the attached diagram....to the right of your sign is an example of  
the sign for WALLET in ASL. The fingertips press against each other in  
that sign too...

Have a great day!  Val ;-)
